Diana Princess of Wales

Countries: France

Born Lady Diana Frances Spencer in Norfolk. Married the Prince of Wales at St Paul's Cathedral in London on 29 July 1981, divorced 28 August 1996. Died in a car crash in Paris with Dodi Fayed. Above the entrance to that tunnel there was already (erected 1989) a full-sized replica of the flame in the torch carried in the hand of the New York statue of Liberty. This became an unofficial memorial for Diana and many people think it was created for her. The Londoneer is setting up a map of Diana's London.

2023: Diana was buried on an island at her family's ancestral home, Althorp House. Vanity Fair had a photo of the memorial.
